Chapter 488 Victory Without Pressure.
As the sixth spirit ring glowed with black light, the old man slightly tilted his arm back. Then, he swung it fiercely towards Xuan Mo.
Dozens of thorny vines erupted from the ground, overlapping and swirling in mid-air, resembling barbed spears!
"Whirling Thorn Vine Spears!!!"
These vines, bursting from the earth, swept across the area. Besides the spear-like attacks, some vines, like venomous snakes, lurked in the shadows, waiting for their chance.
And like spears and snakes, each attack was aimed at Xuan Mo's lower body, neck, or head with frenzied speed and force.
"Heh, so you want to cripple me?"
Xuan Mo remained unfazed by the old man's attacks. Even though his right arm was tightly bound by vines, constantly constricting his flesh, Xuan Mo showed little sign of pain.
He simply leaned back slightly, and then, that steel-like black substance instantly covered his entire body, transforming into a thin layer of armor.
Simultaneously, the purple ripples of his third soul skill, "Intent of Heavy Rock," began to spread outwards. The scattered, broken rocks and soil, under the force of gravity, seemed to rise weightlessly into the air.
"Heh, wanting to cripple me is just wishful thinking on your part, old man."
Xuan Mo's expression gradually turned cold. "Unless an incredibly powerful Title Douluo comes, perhaps they can try. But you… are very weak!!!"
As his words fell, Xuan Mo's right arm lashed out.
"Gravity Fist!"
In an instant, the purple ripples roared! The surging "Intent of Heavy Rock" erupted from his right fist, instantly tearing apart the vines wrapped around his arm. Those spear-like, venomous vines, filled with gravity, melted away like ice and snow!!
Less than half an hour later.
"Cough cough cough…"
The dean of Barak Academy, Luo Fuqi's maternal grandfather, was punched squarely in the chest by Xuan Mo, immediately spitting out a mouthful of blood.
"Old man, you'd better not be so reckless."
Xuan Mo clenched his fist, then casually gestured to the old man to look around.
He saw that one of the two Soul Emperors he had brought was already struggling. Besides his claw-like martial soul being broken through, his entire body was blackened by Ma Hongjun's phoenix flames. He was almost unrecognizable.
After a series of booming explosions in the air, phoenix meteors collided with the Soul Emperor's body. He was sent flying like a broken sack.
The other Soul Emperor fared even worse; after being repeatedly defeated by Xiao Wu, he was thrown unconscious by an Eighth-Stage Fist.
As for Tianya and Lao E, they were no match for Tang San. They were entangled with the Blue Silver Emperor and brutally beaten by the Clear Sky Hammer.
Even his two old friends, whom he had invited, were being overwhelmed by Ryder and Shenger, with no chance of winning.
"Heh, old man, are you sure you want to continue?"
Hearing Xuan Mo's voice, the old man felt a mockery, and his aged face burned with even more anger!
"Boy! Don't think you've got it all figured out!"
His seventh spirit ring shone with black light. "I've said it before, I must avenge my grandson! Since you've broken his legs and crippled his manhood, I'll make sure you're childless too!"
"Is that so? Looks like persuasion won't work."
Seeing the old man about to use his seventh spirit skill, how could Xuan Mo let him succeed? Otherwise, it would be another problem.
So, Xuan Mo transformed into a golden body, and gravity ripples enveloped the old man.
Instantly, the old man felt a heavy aura right next to him, like an invisible hand gripping his throat.
And at that moment, the young man opposite him, whose entire body was now golden, had already withdrawn his fists to his waist. A layer of heavy purple ripples enveloped his fist, assuming an attack stance.
Seeing this, the old man instinctively withstood the immense gravity, managing a difficult defensive posture. But then…
"Gravity Fist!"
Xuan Mo unleashed another Gravity Fist. Under the combined influence of gravity and force, the air in front of his fist seemed to solidify within it, forcefully pushed outwards.
Then, this incredibly powerful punch mercilessly slammed into the old man's stomach.
With a deafening "Boom!"
In Luo Fuqi's astonished gaze, and in his vision, his grandfather was struck by Xuan Mo's punch without even making contact. The entire scene he witnessed seemed to tremble.
Except for Xuan Mo maintaining his punching stance, his grandfather was instantly embedded in the mansion's stone wall, becoming a human portrait!
Even his Martial Soul True Body was rendered useless by Xuan Mo's ruthless attack.
"Now only Ryder and Shenger are left."
Xuan Mo looked at the elder dean who had been forced to relinquish his Martial Soul and fallen into a coma, and then also dispelled his Martial Soul. He then turned his gaze to Ryder and Shenger.
At the same time, "Brother Ryder, it seems we need to step up our efforts." Seeing this, Shenger immediately unleashed a torrent of water around him. The rising aura caused the Soul Saint he was fighting to twitch involuntarily.
Ryder, hearing this, didn't say much. He simply extended six blood-red claws, and eight blood swords appeared in his hands,indicating that Ryder was also prepared to go all out. "Sizzle! S ...
"Boy, let's stop and talk this over!"
The Soul Saint fighting Ryder, seeing that he could no longer withstand the attack, hurriedly tried to make peace, clearly having lost the will to fight.
But Ryder curled his lip and said coldly, "Since you've already made your move, you'll naturally have to pay a price. How could I let you leave so easily!"
As he spoke, the strength and speed of his attacks increased.
Instantly, the Soul Saint's entire body, except for some private parts, was completely covered in sword wounds, with blood flowing freely. His helpless appearance clearly showed that this Soul Saint was only a few moves away from being defeated by Ryder.
And in the next second, alarm bells rang in the Soul Saint's mind. Ryder was about to slash his neck with his sword.
However, at that moment, "Splash... Boom!"
A stream of water struck the Soul Saint fighting Shenger, sending him flying backward. It also grazed the Soul Saint fighting Ryder, changing his direction.
Ryder's sword missed his neck, instead striking his chest, splattering blood everywhere. When the blood stopped splattering, the wound was so deep it exposed bone.
Though not dead, he was incapacitated.
"Looks like I've gained the upper hand."
Looking at Shenger, Ryder said nothing.
Then everyone walked towards Xuanmo, and together they approached the terrified Lovki, who was slumped in his wheelchair.
"What should we do with him now?"
